Influences of biofilm structure and antibiotic resistance mechanisms on indirect pathogenicity in a model polymicrobial biofilm.

PMID: 168205002006

Key Findings

The study identified two antibiotic resistance mechanisms: a beta-lactamase (bla) conferring resistance to ampicillin and a spectinomycin adenyltransferase (aad(9)) conferring resistance to spectinomycin. These genes were experimentally validated in E. coli.
